General Talk & info on Generic rmails & PMs
To all the players and CO-GMs: Its important to know that if the game gets bigger and more players join us, some of the personal touches you may see will kinda of slows down when it comes to a few things.
In no way am I trying to be rude, BUT when players are not around and don't leave notes in chit chat thread that they are away the posting in IC can be effected. Its important that we push on and post in a timely manner. Keep in mind that the game is not a free-forum but the players do have some of liberties when posting. Please keep from making stuff up that's not related to the Adventure, it does not to the game but takes away from the module. I enjoy everyone's additions so please keep it up and post away. Also know that when I post no matter how simple it is I am waiting for a character to react or reply, this is the part that can really slow down a game and why we have a 24 hrs rule.
As you can see I'm very active and I post something everyday. Sometimes in IC or maybe more info for the players, sometimes just organizing the threads.
An example of a generic rmail is when someone has not logged in or posted for more then 24 hrs. Unfortunately I do forget things and time can be short some days with RL stuff.
If you receive an rmail like the one below, know that it needs a reply, any reply so that I know your around. Also note its not personal. As we all well know here on RPOL, games end quickly when posting stalls and players have RL stuff that just doesn't make posting possible. I am willing to hold a character on the side in story until a player returns, or NC them if necessary.
If you loss a character because your not around or RL just gets in the way of Roleplaying I truly understand and every player here is always welcomed to come back and either take back their character if still an NpC, or make a new one.
Hopefully this clears the air alittle and we can get to some serious top notch RPing :)

The example I was talking about has been included below;
This is a generic email nothing personal just keeping up with things
Checking in - Are you planning to stay with our game?
Kingdoms of Kalamar - Imperial Amry
Link back to this game
We do have a 24 hr. Rule
quote:
If a Player doesn’t post, their turn will be on “Hold” until they return, IF the adventure progress to a point that a decision is necessary to keep a group together or save a characters life, ect. , ect. Then the GM will do what is in the best interest of that player or group.
This above rule does have a limit and if too much time passes I would have to find another player.
Hopefully RL has just gotten a bit crazy and you will be back in the swing of things soon. If so shoot me back an rmail,
and, if not truly sorry to see you go :(
If I don't get a reply by (date) I will have to assume your just not interested and I wish you luck in your future roleplaying endeavors.
